Couple of queries in continuing saga of Walker, printer, Norwich. Where, exactly, was Church Street, St. Miles', c. 1840-50? I know that it was in the vicinity of Colegate Street. Where did White Hart pub stand - western or eastern side of Coslany Street, same period? Sometimes listed as 28 Coslany Street - 27 and 29 exist (in different profile nowadays?) but when did street numbering take to odd and even system permanently? I think at a late time...Where, c. 1840-50, was Bridge Street, St. George's (I kind of assume that it was at the lower end of St. George's - obviously, next the Wensum).
Looking to find details of one Theodore Smythes, located in Heigham in 1849 but not appearing in 1851 census.
Here's hoping,

Hi
please see - http://www.norfolkpubs.co.uk/
Grapes 72 Colegate Street // Formerly Church Street, St Miles - an 1885 map shows this to be Colegate Street but this listed in 1892 as Church Street.
I'm not sure if Church Street extended to the left beyond Coslany Street to the river on map opposite St Miles (aka St michael at Coslany) as this was Vulcan Works (Iron).
This map shows Coslany Street ending at St Michael Alley.
The White Hart (my Great Great Grandfather - held the license) is on the right of Coslany Street as you walk towards Oak Street away from the city centre.
Prior to the White Hart, at no. 26 Coslany Street was the Red Lion.
On the left but before the Red lion at no.23 was the Waggon & Horses.
Bridge Street is now St George's Street -
(Pam Brooks, Norwich - Street by Street ) - is a good source for old streets of the city
Regards

Thanks to Yokel (not for the first time, I think) and GJB.
However, 'my' Theodore Smythes was a tailor. His daughter, Maria ( born in Nijmegen), married Robert Walker junior in 1849 out of Heigham. Sorry, Yokel. I should probably have put all that down before asking...
GJB has illuminated much for me.
One more item. Where, exactly, was (is) the Duke's Palace? I expect it to be or have been somewhere close to Duke Street.
